Rolling Stone announced on its Facebook page that a Boston Marathon bombing suspect will be featured on the cover of their August edition of the magazine.

"In our new issue, contributing editor Janet Reitman delivers a deeply reported account of the life of (alleged) Boston bomber Jahar Tsarnaev," reads a status posted on the magazine's Facebook page on Tuesday.

To judge from the Facebook comments and from this ABC News story, this is a hotly controversial move.
